Great House by Nicole Krauss

From Nicole Krauss, acclaimed author of The History of Love, comes Great House, an ambitious and deeply layered novel about memory, loss, inheritance, and the objects that connect us to the past.
 
At the center of the novel is an enormous writing desk that passes through different lives and across continents. As Krauss gradually reveals the connections among its owners, their seemingly separate stories become a meditation on what we preserve, what we lose, and the emotional weight carried by the things we leave behind.
 
Literary and contemplative, Great House rewards readers who enjoy character-driven fiction that unfolds gradually and invites reflection long after the final page.
